Lodge 12: Chesapeake Chapter 20th Anniversary
Posted in 
This “new” item from Chesapeake Chapter of Nentico Lodge #12 is eight years old now, but has been hard to catch up with. I have finally been able to scan one this week; I saw it briefly at last summer’s lodge picnic, but was unable at that time to get either an image or enough notes to have a good description. Nentico started using district-based chapters in 1980; several chapter issues have commemorated anniversaries, including the piece pictured here issued by Chesapeake Chapter in 2000.
The patch is round, a bit over three and a half inches in diameter, with a stylized depiction of the triangular stone fire ring in the lodge’s ceremonial circle. This is the second patch from Chesapeake Chapter; the first was for the chapter’s tenth anniversary, and is an oval which was for a short while mistakenly listed as a round. It is unclear whether this issue will be listed as the R1 or as the R2 to avoid confusion with the earlier listing. Blue Book style data is as follows:
| Chapter | Issue | Bdr Color/Type | Bkgd | Name | fdl/BSA | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chesapeake | R1? | RED | R | LBL | RED | “20 Years of Chesapeake Chapter”; “1980-2000″; 91mm | |
